WWRB

WWRB was a shortwave international broadcasting station known as both "World Wide Religious Broadcasting" and (to a lesser extent) "World Wide Radio Broadcasting" broadcasting from Morrison, Tennessee. It was a subsidiary of Airline Transport Communications Incorporated. The station featured primarily Christian religious programming.

WWRB quietly ceased shortwave broadcasting at the end of 2020 and continued operating solely as an Internet station. Owner David Frantz died January 2, 2022.
